Cleveland Launcher 460 Comp 9.5* NV Shaft (R) Golf Drivers - Reviews

On 2005-04-19, Zen Mango rated this Cleveland Launcher 460 Comp 9.5* NV Shaft (R) a 5...(5416)



Purchase: Present from pops for taking him to the masters. Got it from Golfsmith in Buckhead for $339. I think they mis-priced it, so I figured the golf gods let me get away with one!!!
Pros: BANG! Have been looking for a driver with more pop and more control than my previous sticks. Set up is good and it swings great. Launch monitor put me in NV 65 regular flex. I swing at 104-111mph but with an easy tempo. Didnt like the way it felt (for me) with any stiff shafts. Pro Launch R and S seemed to stiff with this club head, although they are nice on my old Launcher 460 (still in garage). Never liked the NV in anything so I was surprised to see this combo pop out. The higher kick point and stiff tip have this shaft play more like my old YS6 Stiff but with a heck of a lot more control. I have hit em all, and truely believe this is the one. I play to a USGA of 5.7 so this is good for probably all. It is workable, but I have always just wanted to go straight anyway. I just go over the trouble now.
Cons: Little bit too easy to draw. Still working on it. Anyone saying that some things are right with a stick should know it takes at least a couple rounds to figure out how to set up with it. No real dislikes at a..
Quality: Top notch. Wish the head cover could be less dorky.

Review Summary: Bottom line this club will not disappoint. Take the time to go on the launch monitor and get fitted for right loft/shaft/ flex combination. When you do you will be rewarded by making your foursome green with envy (no pun intended) Launch it baby!!
